Love the new packaging on all the new Pizzini wines. Character and class. This Pizzini La Volpe Nebbiolo 2019 is, as ever, good drinking Nebbiolo at a very fair price. …
Few Australian Nebbiolo producers have invested as much effort, for as long, as Pizzini. Indeed, that history now spans three decades - there's a great yarn about Pizzini's first Nebbiolo, from …
